Arx Pax Would Help Fulfill Tesla CEO Elon Musk's Dream


The technology offered by Arx Pax would manufacture prototype engines for the Hyerloop transportation system proposed by Elon Musk

Hoverboard company would let Tesla’s founder Elon Musk ease the difficulties of commuters. Technology offered by the organization that helped introduce Hendo Hoverboard would be employed for the development of prototype engines to fulfill South African born entrepreneur’s dream of establishing a Hyperloop high speed transportation system.
Arx Pax has been selected for the showcasing of its Hover Engines at the Hyperloop Competition Design Weekend held at the Texas A&M University, the organization made an announcement on Thursday. More than hundred engineering groups from all over the world will be participating in the competitive event on 29th and 30th January for the development of automobiles or pods for the one mile long Hyperloop testing track of Space X  in Hawthorne, California.
Testing of the track would be done in the later part of 2016. Hyperloop is aiming to transport cars and people across Calif at speeds reaching 800mph.
The Hover Engines utilize Magnetic Field Architecture technology of Arx Pax to offer magnetic levitation. CEO of Arx Pax spoke to FoxNews.com that an integrated system is offered by the engines for levitation propulsion, guidance and braking.  “Not only is there lift, you can redirect some of the force to use for braking, thrust, or for movement in any direction,” he stated. “People have been trying to do this for many years.”
The concept’s initial MFA proof was the hover board pioneered by the Hendo Hover subsidiary that was established in Oct, 2014. MFA is continuing for the generation of a lot of buzz- Arx Pax has even touted the technology as a mechanism to defend structures and people in natural calamities like earthquakes.
In 2015, the organization even signed a Space Act contract with the National Aeronautics and Space Administration to focus on the usage of MFA for building micro- satellite capture products that could couple and manipulate satellites from a distance.
In other news, Reno Gazette- Journal has analyzed that Tesla’s Gigafactory has fallen short of its projected economic impact on capital investment and job generation used for persuading legislators for approving a record making tax incentive package for the venture.
According to public documentation’s review the venture has generated only a fraction of capital investment, job opportunities and payroll estimated for the factory’s first year in a study conducted by the Office of Economic Development o of Governor during the special session held 2 years ago.
Car scoops reported that the electric vehicle maker’s Supercharger station has been cleared in an investigation conducted into a fire that burned Model S of Tesla at a charging facility in Norway. The investigation has discovered that the fire took place in the automobile itself. However, it failed to find out the factor responsible for the incident as the vehicle was fully gutted.

Elon Musk's SpaceX Is About To Organize A Competition


Tesla's latest invention has been welcomed by a significant number of people.

The CEO of Tesla Motors, Elon Musk, has received good news, as a significant number of people have welcomed his latest invention. Tesla news reported that Mr. Musk had previously announced to develop a solar powered hyperloop transportation system. 
Mr. Musk’s space technology organization, SpaceX, had recently proclaimed to build a 1.6-mile test track for the facility. To benefit from the ideas of university students, the Space Exploration Technologies Corporation has decided to organize a competition.
Tesla news today informed that the event is scheduled to take place in June 2016, which would enable selected candidates to test and design their pods on the hyperloop test track that would be built near the corporation’s head office in Hawthorne, California. Interested applicants need to register at the competition page of the SpaceX website in order to participate in the contest.
Tesla Motors news affirmed that the company’s student-friendly event has succeeded in luring a significant number of students of more than 700 people in a short span of time. The transportation network’s idea has also attracted other sections of the society, as many companies have begun investing in the project, including Hyperloop Transportation Technologies and Hyperloop Technologies. These two organizations are not affiliated with the South African born entrepreneur and Californian organization in any manner.
Independent engineering teams have also been invited to participate in the event. Market experts stated that the space firm’s initiative would not only help it benefit from the ideas of the students but also improve its reputation. Interested stakeholders can apply till 15th September. 
Mr. Musk has previously compared the venture with a number of products, such as rail gun, air hockey table, and Concorde jet. It is expected that the electric-powered transportation network would cover a distance of 644 kilometers and connect Los Angeles to San Francisco.
Social media sources indicated that the transportation project would be completed in a time span of at least 84 months. The new system would cost less than $6,000,000,000. The passenger-friendly rail service would be able to cover a five and a half hour long distance in a time span of 1800 seconds.
Industry experts believe that the competition would polish the skills of the applicants. SpaceX’s management should now take steps to host the competition in the best possible manner to successfully conduct the event, or it would fail to receive the feedback that is required for the development of the technologically advanced network.
Many students have logged up for the contest. This ensures a healthy competition among the participants from different regions. Their contributions would measure the effectiveness of the firm’s plan. The corporate image of the organization has influenced people and compelled them to sign up for the event.
